I hope my CoD4 stops locking up with the 7.12's. Ever since I got my 3850, CoD4 online will hard lock every now and then. Damn it sucks! IDK if it's my card, my oc' the game, drivers or what, but it sucks. PC has always ran great, but this CoD4 lock up is killing me,

poor ati. the 7.12's still give errors in crysis with a 3870 :shadedshu
it's not as bad as before, but there are still some anomalies such as disappearing rocket launchers and no red dot in the reflex sight. i rolled back to the crysis hotfix driver and it's all better now.

I had thought ATI were recommending Crysis players to stick with the hotfix until further notice? I had even noticed a major performance hit in Crysis when I had installed CCC 7.11 with my X1950.

Do me a favor as I just went thro a bout of the crashes myself. Try turning off or lowering the OC , as setting my CPU back to stock has eliminated the issues for me! ( guess I need to reclock in a different manner now)

This might be my last ATI driver installation for a looong time (should get 8800gt finally start of the next year).

Oh and haven't uninstalled any catalyst 7 version driver the whole year, before a new one and still going strong. (and I've only used the display driver without CCC). Will put this on on top of previous ones as well and it will work too (people are too obsessed about uninstalling previous drivers, or I'm just lazy to do it )
